What type of orbit does Uranus have?
uranus has an elliptical orbit, as do all the planets. interesting fact, due to it's long narrow orbit, Pluto is sometimes closer to the sun than neptune.
Does the orbit of Pluto sometimes cross that of the planet Neptune?
Pluto has a highly elliptical orbit which is at a steep angle to the ecliptic.The ecliptic is the plane that contains the sun's apparent motion through the skies from earth's point of view. Pluto is a K.O. (Kuyper Object, an object from the Kuyper Belt, more like an icy comet than an asteroid). It does travel within the orbit of Neptune for a few years out of its long orbit, but never in a way that will bring it crashing down onto Neptune. Pluto is locked into a special harmonic relationship with Neptune which prevents that from happening. For every 2 orbits of Pluto there are 3 orbits of Neptune. They are never close enough to collide. Pluto spends the vast majority of its orbital time in the Kuyper Belt, beyond Neptune's orbit.
Is Neptune's orbit unusual?
The orbits of Neptune and Pluto appear to cross each other. However, because of their alignment, they can never collide or even approach close to each other.Pluto orbits in a very long elliptical shape. Its orbit sometimes passes within that of Neptune. Then, for about 20 years, it becomes closer to the sun than Neptune.
Why does Uranus have an irregular orbit?
Uranus has an irregular orbit due to the influence of its neighbor planet Neptune and other outer planets. The gravitational interactions between these planets can cause Uranus' orbit to become slightly off balance, leading to its irregular path around the Sun.
How long does it take Neptune to orbit the sun in months?
A month on Earth is based on the amount of time it takes for the moon to make an orbit. Uranus has at least 27 moons, each with a different orbit time, so a month on Uranus doesn't make much sense.

How long is it from Neptune to Pluto?
The orbit of Pluto crosses that of Neptune and so it is possible for the distance between the two to be very small. At their furthers, the distance is close to 12 billion km.
How long it takes to obrit the Pluto?
It takes pluto 248 years to orbit the sun but sometimes it depends on neptune because they swap places so if pluto was in neptune place it would then take 220 years or something like that.
What is the strange fact about Neptune and Pluto?
I'm not sure if any of these is "the strange fact", but they're all true:Pluto's orbit is so eccentric that it can be either nearer to or further away from the Sun than Neptune is (it spends the majority of its time further away, though, and only cuts inside Neptune's orbit for about 20 years of its approximately 250-year-long orbit).Pluto's orbit is "locked" to Neptune's in a 3:2 resonance (i.e. Pluto completes exactly 2 orbits for every 3 of Neptune's).Neptune's largest moon, Triton, is somewhat larger than Pluto, and may at one time have been a KBO like Pluto itself.

Uranus' orbit is 84 years.

Why does pluto take so long to orbit the earth?
No answer Pluto orbits the Sun Pluto does not orbit the Earth
How long does it take to get to Neptune from Pluto?
The distance between Neptune and Pluto varies as they orbit the Sun, but on average it is about 2.7 billion miles (4.4 billion kilometers). With current technology, a spacecraft traveling at the speed of New Horizons (about 36,373 mph or 58,540 km/h) would take approximately 85 years to reach Neptune from Pluto.
Totally dumb but i am coll not?
Neptune, but I believe that every so often it switches with Pluto for a while because of how their orbits are.AnswerNeptune, currently. When Pluto's orbit brings it closer again (not for a long time), it will for many years be the eighth planet from the sun. Because of Pluto's off-center orbit, it alternates position #8 with Neptune. --Answer--As Pluto is no longer classified as a planet, the answer now is always NeptuneNote from usmc505 (even though i really answer only military questions)If you are doing this for school, they consider Pluto a planet but neptune will still be the answer
